    We arrived off of a flight and there was noone to check us in so we had to find somewhere else to stay. They blatantly lied and said someone was there until 2130 - I can show from my phone calls to them that I was there at that time and the place was deserted. Thankfully not with kids or after a very long flight

    Thank you for your kindness. Our check-in time is between 2-8pm so even if there was no staff at 9.30pm it was well past our check-in times and you had not contacted us previously to let us know you would be arriving late. If you had, we would have made sure to accommodate your request. The first and only message we had from you was at 22.38pm on the day of check-in. If you had messaged us when you arrived we would have been able to assist you.

    The staff were friendly and we were given a lovely greeting from Holly. The Inn was clean throughout and refreshments in room was more than adequate. Personal items such as shampoo and shower gel were adequate.

    A full English breakfast instead of just cereals and toast would have been more appropriate in an English hotel. A toilet seat that was not secured to the toilet correctly, however that was put right on second day.

    The room was lovely and clean

    The waiting around to get the kitchen staff attention there was no bell or anything to ring . And unsure when having a cooked breakfast why we couldn't have a plain omelette and beans ?

    Atmospheric surroundings of an old country coach inn, very authentic. Staff were very nice and helpful. Room was comfortable and very clean. Fabulous shower!

    Lunch and evening meal menus were the same. Would have been nice to have had a nice country meal such as a steak and ale pie with fresh vegetables in the evening

    Very little. East to find.

    Grubby room, blocked toilet in room when we arrived, shower tray blocked, paper thin wall with drunk neighbouring guest vomiting all night, unable to get any breakfast, no breakfast drinks ie. no tea, coffee or fruit juice, toaster but no butter, unable to find any staff at all despite knocking doors and ringing bell.

    The inn was well located but very noisy with music from downstairs, loud voices outside and traffic. The hotel part had been recently and tastefully decorated and our room was spotless.

    We were expecting a breakfast but instead found a deserted room with a couple of opened cheap brand breads and a self-service hot drinks maker.Nobody was about. It was stated in our room that if you had any allergies or intolerances to inform someone but there was nobody about to relay this to so I went hungry.

    Location was good as we were going to Ardingly College to see an amateur drama group perform.

    Only one plug socket by bed, one bedside table and you had to get out of bed to turn the lights off. No cooked breakfast, poor choice ales

    The room was not serviced by housekeeping for the entire week. I had to retrieve towels myself from a cabinet in the corridor. Additionally, the breakfast provided was of very poor quality and did not reflect what we paid for.

    THE BREAKFAST WAS GOOD AND ABUNDANT, THE CHEF WAS VERY HELPFUL IN TRYING TO SATISFY MY EVERY REQUEST

    The only downside was that the kitchen wasn't open every day, especially in the evenings. This made it uncomfortable, as the closest open restaurant was a 20-minute walk away. It's doable, but when it rains, as it often does, it's not very pleasant. For lunch, however, we were always guaranteed an excellent meal at the bar next door. It would be helpful to consider keeping the kitchen open every evening to ensure a full service.
